Abstract

The article focuses on one of the three pillars of the concept of the German educator Friedrich Froebel - the play - and presents its meaning in the light of his views and the followers of his thought in contemporary pedagogy and methodology of pre-school education. The 21st century brought a revival of Froebel’s pedagogical views on the subject of play. Research and methodological solutions implemented in the pre-school reality allow us to recognize that play is a child's life as well a didactic strategy.
